NC STATE UNIVERSITY Background

AIS Gene Library Based Real-Time Resource Allocation on Time-Sensitive

Large-Scale Multi-Rate Systems

Graphic Display Interface

The simulink module that has been developed is a software simulation

platform for the project.

Develop a GUI for the simulink module to analyze and display the result of the

module graphically.
